A striking lithograph by Théophile Alexandre Steinlen, 'Prière Marmitale' captures a moment of quiet contemplation in a Parisian street, rendered in the artist's signature Art Nouveau style. A poignant and atmospheric piece, perfect for adding a touch of historical charm to your home.

Théophile Alexandre Steinlen's 'Prière Marmitale' offers a poignant glimpse into Parisian life at the turn of the century. A key figure in the Art Nouveau movement, Steinlen was renowned for his illustrations and posters, often depicting the working class and the urban landscape. This lithograph, rendered in stark black and white, captures a woman in profile, her hands clasped in what appears to be prayer or supplication. The title, 'Prière Marmitale,' hints at a plea related to 'marmite,' a French term for a cooking pot or, metaphorically, sustenance. The scene is set against a backdrop of a dimly lit street, punctuated by the glow of gas lamps. The woman's attire, though elegant, suggests a certain vulnerability. Steinlen's masterful use of line and shadow creates a sense of atmosphere and depth, drawing the viewer into the narrative. As a fine art print, 'Prière Marmitale' brings a touch of Parisian charm and historical depth to any interior. Its monochrome palette makes it a versatile addition to various decor styles, while its subject matter offers a thought-provoking focal point. Perfect for a study, living room, or hallway, this print invites contemplation and adds a touch of artistic sophistication to your home.

Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.
